I don't think I ever said that I or anyone else has a right to have dogs bark and disturb other campers. At least that is not what I meant to say in any of my posts. I even said specifically

. I and several others gave suggestions and stated measures that we take to prevent our dogs from disturbing others.
I do take measures to ensure that my dogs don't disturb others including leaving the radio on, closing the blinds, running the air conditioner and teaching them a command that aknowledges an alert bark. Which you seem to think means that they bark constantly. You are wrong. As I said in response to 2gypsies post, I actually do talk to the neighbors and ask if the dogs barked. On several occassions they have responded that they did not even realize we had dogs. I have left a tape recorder running to see what was going on when we have had a young dog. In 11 years and probably over 200 different campgrounds, I have never had a complaint. You and Noplace2 seem to have read a lot into my posts that was not intended and/or ever said.

And exactly what did you do about your dog barking? Did you leave and not return as you suggested that I should do?
To the Op, I hope that you have gotten enough good suggestions to help you and your dogs enjoy RVing together.
